Extracting after a "-"
I want to take everything to the right of a "-", but the formula I am using
cuts part of it and doesn't give me everything. Is there a formula that gives me everything to the right regardless of length of characters in the cell? |

Extracting after a "-"
=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND("-",A1))
This will extract the needed text from A1. Adjust to fit your needs.

Extracting after a "-"
This assumes there is only one "-" in your text string.
